What could make a man cry? <br />And what could make a strong man, <br />So hard-hearted shed tears uncontrollably? <br />Please let him cry, <br />Let him shed his sorrows away in salty tears <br />Let him cry to God; his Shepherd <br />For he is so dependent <br />So dependent on his love; <br />A love so piercing and far reaching <br />It reaches his innermost being; the real him <br />A love greater than a mothers love for a child <br />Neither can that of a newly wedded couple’s be likened to it <br />Not anymore can he hold, <br />Not anymore can he be stiff <br />Not anymore, he’s broken and out of his own strength <br />His strength has failed <br />Yet beyond his strength is one that holds the universe!<br /><br />nicholas boateng<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/so-dependent/
